As noted yesterday, Bret Hart has signed a short-term contract with World Wrestling Entertainment. The WWE Hall of Famer signed the contract this past week. It apparently goes into effect on January 1st, 2010 and runs until April 10th, 2010, approximately two weeks after WrestleMania 26. That likely means Bret will appear at WrestleMania 26. Hart had numerous discussions with WWE officials in recent months and is now open to the idea of returning as a regular television character.
It should be noted, however, that he will not come as a full-time wrestler considering he’s 52 years old and has not wrestled since suffering head injuries (and later a stroke) a decade ago. Instead, it’s being speculated that he may return as a general manager of sorts.
Bret also wanted his signing to be kept quiet and his return to be a surprise, but WWE couldn’t help themselves and all but announced it publicly on RAW this week. We’ll keep you posted.
I will be taking a train from Albany, NY down to New York City this Saturday night for the ROH Final Battle show. If you’re interested in meeting up Saturday evening I’d be glad to do so. The least I can do for you guys who support the website is buy ya’ dinner and a drink on me. If you’re interested shoot me an email at Webmaster@ProWrestlingScoops.com and we’ll work out all the details! Thanks for your continued support of the website!
